Abstract

About 70% of pregnant women experience back pain, and working pregnant women are often very active. Persistent back pain can affect their quality of life, disrupt daily activities, lower work performance, and even cause trauma in future pregnancies. Currently, maternity belts do not include features such as back support, heating, massage, or an attractive design. This study aims to develop a maternity warm massage belt that can reduce the intensity of back pain. This research uses Research and Development (R&D) with three stages: analysis, development, and product testing. The quasi-experiment design includes a one-group pretest-posttest with 30 respondents selected through purposive sampling from July to September 2024 in the Puskesmas Sidomulyo area. In the first stage, feedback from 5 pregnant women indicated a desire for a belt with back support, heating, massage, and an appealing design. The second stage produced a maternity warm massage belt that met these expectations, with 92% of pregnant women finding it comfortable to use. The third stage of testing showed a reduction in back pain from 4,97 to 3, with a p-value of 0.000, indicating that the maternity warm massage belt effectively reduces back pain intensity. The maternity warm massage belt is effective in reducing back pain in pregnant women and could be an innovative product for further development.

Abstract

The study explores the development of a Foot Soak Device to improve the sleep quality of pregnant women in their third trimester. Pregnant women often experience discomfort such as leg edema, back pain, and sleep disturbances due to increased fetal weight, shortness of breath, and fetal movements. Poor sleep quality can negatively impact health, weaken the immune system, and lead to complications like low birth weight in newborns. Existing foot soak devices lack key features such as temperature regulation, heating, and massage, prompting researchers to innovate a new foot soak device tailored to pregnant women. The research follows a Research and Development (R&D) method. It includes two stages: the first involves analysis and product development based on feedback from five third-trimester pregnant women, while the second stage tests the product’s efficacy through a quasi-experimental design with a one group pretest-posttest involving 20 pregnant women, using purposive sampling. Results from the first stage highlighted the need for a foot soak with temperature control, a heater, and massage functionality. The developed device incorporated these features, and 90% of participants found the foot soaks comfortable. In the second phase, the analysis showed a significant effect of the foot soak on improving sleep quality (p ≤ 0.05). The study concludes that midwives could implement this foot soak device as part of midwifery care to enhance the quality of life for pregnant women in the third trimester.
